Certain 2021–2023 Ford Mustang Mach‑E vehicles are being recalled (NHTSA campaign 26V417000, Ford 26S50). The rear differential pinion shaft may fracture, which can cause a loss of drive power or unintended vehicle movement if the vehicle is in park without the parking brake applied, increasing the risk of a crash; dealers will repair or replace the rear differential assembly free of charge. Interim letters were mailed July 13, 2026; additional letters will be sent once the remedy is available (anticipated in late December 2026), and owners may call Ford at 1-866-436-7332.
